نزهة الأفكار في معرفة الأسعار (يوسف بن طوغان)‎ : تحقيق و دراسة

Abstract EN

Scientists interest in Astronomy led to the development of Astrology, for it was not limited to predicting the future of man and his fortune, but related to a country's economic conditions, price movement and the type of popular commercial activity around the year by knowing the connection of each star and each zodiac sign with the type of commodity and determining its price situation.

The manuscript we have here is a link between commercial activity and the general economic situation with the movement of stars and planets.

The author provided an astronomical explanation for the prosperity of a certain commodity trade and the recession of other ones, by linking materials, whether they are agricultural or mineral materials, to the planets and the movement of the moon.

And regardless of the validity of this interconnection or not, the author linked three sciences: Astronomy, Astrology and Economics.

This made this manuscript worthy of study and investigation, where it will be shown later by viewing the text.
